Four people have been charged with murder after a teenager was stabbed to death in Tower Hamlets.

Officers were scrambled to Lichfield Road, Mile End, after reports of an attack on September 4.

Shea Gordon, 17, was fatally stabbed while another young man was wounded.

Four boys, all aged 17, were arrested on Thursday and are due to appear in custody at Barkingside Magistrates’ Court on Friday.

Shea’s family continue to be supported by specialist officers.

Following the attack Detective Chief Inspector Mark Rogers, from the Met’s Specialist Crime Command, said: “Despite having made a number of arrests in this investigation, I continue to appeal for anyone with information about Shea’s murder to come forward.

“Shea’s family are being supported as they try to come to terms with their loss, but only information can really bring them the answers they so desperately need about what happened to him and why.
